Cornell

Best rock band at the moment, they say. For me, it's a shitty band!

Lanfranco for President! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

"the band of that genius called Billy Corgan, an immortal icon of rock. Gifted with an extremely varied voice." Gifted with an extremely varied voice? Immortal icon of rock? Look, I'll tell you.. To me, he has an extremely shitty voice. The Pumpkins' music was beautiful.. Billy was a whiny and unbearable mutt. It sounds like he’s singing with a clothespin on his nose all the time. I prefer Les Claypool vocally! The score is for the music, not for that idiot of a bald pumpkin.

The world needs one thing: open-mindedness. The Maiden, yesterday, today, and tomorrow, can do whatever the hell they want and everything will be granted to them. Whether they choose to stick to good old Heavy Metal, or go for Prog, Speed, Trash, Stoner, Hard Rock, Death, Brutal Death, or pop music. They will always be the Maiden, the ultimate inventors of Heavy Metal... The ones who in 1980 gave birth to everything that came after. Slayer, Metallica, and the rest come later... The Maiden were the first to cross the threshold of the Iron Curtain and hold a concert there. Metal in Russia? In 1980? They didn't even know what it was. One can only respect such a band, and it cannot be said that they haven't been the most important in the metal scene of all time. Period. It would be like saying that the Beatles and the Rolling Stones didn't influence anyone and were useless... Or that Led Zeppelin was just a little band good for playing at local fairs... Nowadays bands like the Maiden, Led Zeppelin, or Deep Purple are still worth 100,000 times more than all these fake angry alternatives. In 1980, releasing an album like "Iron Maiden" was unthinkable. It was a terrifying slap in the face, like Scum by Napalm Death or Kill 'em All by Metallica, to give an example, even if those are posthumous... They shocked as much as the Sex Pistols did, but unlike them, they knew how to play...

Damn, I just shed a little tear! I think you have something to teach about this wonderful site, and you always will (remember that now there’s the new generation which, objectively, has a terribly depressing music scene and through a site like this can build a proper musical culture instead of falling prey to the usual commercial phenomena offered). I’ve also learned something from you, and I’d like to keep doing that. I thank those who set up this site, especially for the opportunity it provides for freedom of thought and the exchange of opinions (which is incredibly important). If this were your last review, I’d be honored to give you one last 5. Great Iron... To hell with those who keep spouting bullshit about Metal being demonic music, only good for corrupting minds and shaping potential murderers. Metal sometimes helps... and not by a little... Goodbye Captain.

Well done! You really like Tori, don't you? It wasn't clear before. Good review.

And Matt Cameron? Is he still impressive?

Beautiful review, amazing group, there's nothing more to add...

Not to mention his climbing skills, as shown in the photo with a debaser.iana t-shirt on the wall.

Excellent review, indeed.. I admire her broad musical perspectives, she is a role model to follow. Best regards..
